This document proposes a design to generate electricity from the movement of vehicles passing over speed breakers. The up and down motion of the speed breaker is converted to rotational motion via a rack and pinion gear arrangement. This drives a generator to produce electricity, which can then be stored in batteries. It is estimated that a single vehicle passing over the speed breaker can generate over 4 watts of power for one minute, and a system installed on a street could produce nearly 6 kilowatt-hours of energy over 24 hours. The design has advantages of utilizing available kinetic energy from vehicles and producing power continuously without requiring fuel transportation.

ABSTRACT Utilization of energy is an indication of the growth of a nation. Best source of energy that we get in day to day life. By placing a Power Generation Unit from Speed Breakers, so much energy can be tapped. Power consumed by the lights can be utilized to send power to these villages.
WORKING PRINCIPLE The reciprocating motion is converted into rotary motion by rack and pinion. Speed Breaker Arrangement RACK & PINION AND CHAIN SPROCKET ARRANGEMENT ARRANGEMENT GEAR DRIVES Generator Inverter Battery Street Lights
WORKING DIAGRAM
OUTPUT Output power = Work done/Sec = (2452.5 x 0.10)/60 = 4.0875 Watts (For One pushing force) Power developed for 1 vehicle passing over the speed breaker arrangement for one minute = 4.0875 watts Power developed for 60 minutes (1 hr) = 245.25 watts Power developed for 24 hours = 5.866 Kw
FABRICATION The frame structure for the total unit is fabricated using L-Angle frames and ordinary frames. Inner parts of the model-Sprocket, Hinges, Rack and Pinion.
FABRICATION MODEL The outer parts of the model-Inverter, Tube light, Battery.
ADVANTAGES Energy available all year round. No fuel transportation problem. Maximum utilization of energy. Load to the piston cylinder arrangement is freely got by movement of vehicles.
CONCLUSION It is an attractive technology for optimal use of available sources. The best and first step the world can take towards this aspect is to analyze all the ways in which energy is being wasted, and to find effective ways to utilize or tap these energy.
